I had the same problem once.
I had a RecyclerView NavigationDrawer and by just moving the Navigation code to the bottom of the xml file my problem got solved.
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="@+id/DrawerLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:elevation="7dp">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
//some code here for the body of your activity
</RelativeLayout>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="@+id/RecyclerView"
android:layout_width="350dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:background="#ffffff"
android:scrollbars="vertical">
</android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView>
hope it works for you too…
